March 24, 2009

Passive Cooling SolutionsCabling Installation and Maintenance will be offering a webcast addressing data center thermal management. The web-delivered seminar will be held on Tuesday, March 31, 2009 at 10 am Pacific Time/1 pm Eastern Time. It will look at different styles of dealing with data center heat generation.

CPI’s Senior Data Center Architect, Bill Watts, will be presenting CPI’s Passive Cooling Techniques. “The presentation will be a high level, but very simple example of the straight forward flexibility basis of passive cooling. Install, compute anywhere-anytime you like until you reach the design kW threshold of your facility. Fill the whole data center at the beginning or one cabinet at a time over a long duration. It will always be simply efficient!” Bill said.
